Help with parses please:
There will be an extra letter in the wordplay:

11a Stage a hoax (5) ?UT?N FUTON ?
8d State express surprise in support of primate (6) ???aco Monaco?
19a Insects caught in animal's lair (4) L??E lice?
39a Edge of green garment (5) A?RO? apron ?

11 Puton - a hoax, Put On - stage. There's been earlier discussion about whether this should have been two words.

39 I think it's just that Apron can mean 'edge of green' (golf?)) and Garment..

Sent mine in but from memory

Lice c- caught in lie an animal’s lair

Mona- a monkey co(r) r extra letter
